HELP! A bottle of green dog shampoo got spilled on my carpet. How do I clean it up? Water only made it worse?

Rub your dog on it!!!! Just kidding....use vinegar to cut the soap. If you have a wet dry vacume that would be great but just use towels to keep soaking it up. Keep adding the full strength vinegar and soaking it up. When you have it all up pour some rubbing alcohol on it and soak that up too. The alcohol will help the water to evaporate.HELP! A bottle of green dog shampoo got spilled on my carpet. How do I clean it up? Water only made it worse?You will have to suction it out with a carpet cleaner (no soap in it) and it will take several times and a lot of clean water. The other option.. find someone to give you a demo on the ';Rainbow'; (it is an environmental cleaning system). They will do a demo for you, clean out your spot, and give you a free gift for listening to them. It is a great deal!HELP! A bottle of green dog shampoo got spilled on my carpet. How do I clean it up? Water only made it worse?Pour table salt on it. Let it ';soak'; up as much as possible. Putting any kind of liquid on it, until you have removed most of it will result in a bigger mess. Either call a professional carpet cleaning company or rent a Rug Doctor unit. Use some laundry detergent to clean up along with stain remover asap before it sets.

Blot it first with old towel water/ammonia solution, should get the stain right out of there. Don't use too much ammonia though!
